What the model said

I'd suggest **#f5f5f5** — a light gray that's easy on the eyes and provides excellent contrast for text and content without being harsh white.

If you want something with more character, **#1a1a1a** (near-black) or **#0f172a** (dark navy) work well for dark mode interfaces.

What type of design are you working on? I can suggest something more specific if you share the context (web, app, etc.).
